Just a general thank you for all your videos and contributions to the Epic 4G community. I'm a rather new Android user and your videos helped guide me through the rooting process so I could try out some of the great work by devs in this forum.

QBking... I have been seeing this alot.. and I think u making a video would help everybody understand the difference.. Can you explain the difference between EXT4 and RFS(any maybe your personal opinion on what you think is the best)... reason I am asking you is because I have been able to do everything to my epic known to man due to the assistance of your vids... I am a HUGE fan... They help so much and anybody that has a problem I direct your way to watch ur vids.. Thanks so much...:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:cool:

I am on Froyo EC05 and I want to just root EC05 and use Titanium Backup and Root Control apps. All of the rooting how to's either are for rooting from Eclair, EB13 Froyo or rooting and flashing to GB. Can anybody point me to the link for starting with EC05 and rooting EC05? I assume the files for oneclick root and the tars for Odin would mess up my phone if I tried to use them?

Upgraded to CWM 5 ( thanks Drockstar and Qbking77 ) and ACS ICS v5.5 ( thanks to Marcusant ) this morning. CWM 5 made this the easiest upgrade yet. I selected upgrade rom from inside rom manager and the rest was a "piece of cake". Was able to do this with only wiping the Dalvik cache so most of my settings and all my apps stayed installed. The only settings that i've noticed changed were the main ringtone and the app showing an my main launcher screen. No stutter at all now in music. Everything seem to be working very well and fast. I did have one time when I could not raise the music volume without activating the screen. But if that is only in musicplayer, very minor. Thanks again this just keeps getting better!!

Seriously awesome work on these videos. Thank you!
[Epic 4G General] gamma105:
Great videos! got a quick question here, I flashed Legendary rom RC2, everything works great, however, when I checked the settings -> Baseband version, it still says EC05..Kernel is samurai gen1.2.1, build number is ERA Legendary RC 2. Is the baseband correct? this is how I flashed my epic:

used CMW purple, backed up system, data and apps -> wiped cache, dalvik, and data -> installed Legendary RC2 -> before rebooting, I did advanced restore -> rebooted.

was I not suppose to do an Advanced restore prior to rebooting the new flash?

Thanks!

[Epic 4G General] tabormeister:
I'm running 3.0.1++ at the moment, it lags for the first half hour-2 hours, after that smooth as butter. voodoo color is gorgeous, everything else including overclock is crazy stable. 2.0.8 is the best if you want a kernel without voodoo color for some reason.

Some people were trying to do work on this before, porting apps to the Epic from other phones, but it never actually functioned.

What ROM/kernel are you running?
[Epic 4G General] sluflyer06:
OK so, I'm no newb at all this stuff, I've got a Galaxy Nexus myself with much fun things done to it ;).

However my GF has a Epic 4G running EI22 (all stock), ever since she got the EI22 OTA her in-call volume is uncontrollably loud to where she can't use the phone. I was going to try some different ROM's out but I can't get her phone to take a CWM flash thru odin. It says it flashes successfully and restarts but then when I boot into recovery its all the stock recovery again....what am I missing. I'm about ready to take the factory EC05 image and just odin her phone back in time to where it worked.

I watched your videos on flashing and I'm following your instructions, its all so straight forward I dunno what is up.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Uncheck auto reboot in Odin, flash the cwm tar, then boot into cwm. Then flash a Rom. I reccomend Legendary Rom 2.2

Heimdall/Ubuntu/Epic

Hi, I have an Epic 4G and I am just not getting heimdall to recognize my device at all. I have a mac, which is apparently not able to talk to my EPIC via USB. And I have an Ubuntu laptop, which can, but not in download mode. I do not have windows, I removed windows from my laptop.

`adb devices` only recognizes my phone when it's in usb debug mode and not in download mode. `heimdall devices` returns 'failed to detect compatible download-mode device.

this is very frustrating because all i need to freaking do is root my device. everything else seems simple. but these $@#^ing phone companies need to step off and realize that i bought this hardware - it is mine and i should be able to do whatever i please. even if it means removing their stupid NASCAR app. really? a @$#^ing nascar app.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
To get Heimdall working check out post 2 in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1052813

Then you would have to adapt it to install the kernel to allow root.
[Epic 4G General] swiftstrike763:
Hey guys I just rooted my Epic and I was looking through all the stuff on here and was wondering if it was all up to date and still compatible with my Epic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
No, qbking77 has not updated this thread in awhile. His latest videos can be found directly on youtube by googling what you are looking for, for instance How to root the Samsung Epic on EL30. He also has a channel on youtube with a list of all his vids. He is just so busy doing so many vids for so many phones (how does he do it?) that I imagine keeping up with all the threads would be quite difficult.
[Epic 4G General] swiftstrike763:
Oh I see that makes perfect sense and yes now that I think about it all (at least most) the videos I watched on messing with my phone were his from what I remember. But thanks for the info I'm gonna check out his YouTube channel now :D

Take care.
[Epic 4G General] wolfen1086:
qbking77 I have only one thing to say abut you. You are a demigod of Samsung phones :) All I have right now is root access with the stock Samsung OS, with of course a couple of bloatwares removed, but I'm really thinking of installing the same stuff you guys here have and these videos are user friendly even for a person lie me who still knows what a stamp is
[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:

updating to Legendary Rom MTD?

I was wondering if it's possible to update from Legendary Rom 2.2 to MTD with all my apps. I updated and all my apps are gone. I have a back up but how do I go about updating to MTD with all my apps? :(

Any help would be appreciated!
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Either back up and restore with Titanium Backup, or if you can edit a nandroid backup...backup up with 3 finger salute into cwm5, not ROM Manager. Open the backup and change all file names from rfs or ext4 in the name to yaffs2. Open nandroid.img with notepad and do the same in there search and replace all will work there. Then after installing MTD Legendary do an advanced restore data from cwm5 of that backup.
[Epic 4G General] brett701:
Looking for some direction

I have samsung epic with sprint(w/ keyboard). How do i root and put ice cream sandwhich on my phone? A lot of the tutorials are very aged.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
If you are rooted then just flash CWM 5.0.2.7 then flash the ICS ROM of choice. If you are not then Google how to root samsung epic on FC09 youtube video by qbking77. After you finish that flash ICS ROM of choice. There is no official ICS for the Epic, nor will there be.
[Epic 4G General] TexasAggie97:
Great Thread, BTW!
[Epic 4G General] brandon489:
why to root

If you are contemplating whether or not you should root I would strongly suggest rooting. The reason I say that is Samsung and Google never plan to move the epic past gingerbread and if you have played around with ics yet you know how big of an upgrade it is. The only way to get ics and jb on your epic is going to be rooting and roms.

---------- Post added at 04:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 PM ----------

I strongly suggest CM9. A great team of devs put it together and it is almost bug free. It is good stock, but there are a lot of custom kernel options out there to throw on top if you get bored.
[Epic 4G General] lakers1fan:
I rooted my phone with the help of your video, qbking but I have not flashed a ROM or whatever the correct phrase is because I'm scared I may mess up my phone. What is the safest ROM for a person who knows nothing about this? and is there an easy step by step guide or video to help walk me thru it?

---------- Post added at 05:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:30 AM ----------

Oh I have FF18 I believe. It is the one that is over ICS which you stated was the safest and could be flashed with any ROM, at least I think that's how you explained it
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
You are in the wrong forum. This is not the Epic Touch.
[Epic 4G General] Big Bang Anarchy:

Vid Suggestions

Thanks so much for making these vids - I, sort of, lurk here on the forums fearing the potential *hate* from asking noob questions. I spend a LOT of time searching the threads to try and find answers, and have spent countless hours over the past few weeks watching Randy, reading the Epic Wiki and searching for answers to the "bugs" that have made my Epic almost un-usuable with Froyo updates, etc. I even figured out how to install adb; gain SU access and mess around on the command prompt, although, I still can't figure out how to pull anything useful from the phone yet - I'm still reading to try to figure it out.

Vids I would really like to see - Please understand I'm not asking for answers relating to these video suggestions, but, these are vids that I would find useful and would keep me from having to post these questions in the forums. I really hope these suggestions add to the discussion:

After flashing to a custom ROM, how to back it up and then access it after flashing to another custom ROM - i.e. If an Epic User flashes Frozen on their phone, then decides they want to try Bonsai, what are the steps to back up frozen (not just on their SDcard - but also on their desktop) and then after trying out Bonsai, show how they can restore their installation and previous Frozen configuration from the backup

How to reformat an SDCard without losing absolutely everything on it - i.e. the process for manually, or automatically backing up the important things on the SDCard before the reformat

How to partition the SDCard & why an Epic user might want to have separate RFS and EXT4 partitions

Also, for known work-arounds and "bug" fixes, I think it would be great to see "quick" vids on these

Video is so great for these types of topics because sometimes it is VERY challenging to find the answer to the exact thing you are looking for in a forum thread that has hundreds of pages of responses, but if there is a vid on YouTube, you can search for the exact thing, and if there is a vid, it will show in the search very easily.

That being said, I really do appreciate the Wiki and the other "sticky" threads that XDA has here - they have helped me a LOT over the past couple of weeks!
[Epic 4G General] Grogck:
Awesome. I'm usually a written/numbers guy but in this case it's nice to see a video too to know what to expect.

I haven't gotten around to rooting mine yet (this is the most content I've ever been with a stock device after years in the ROM world with WM) but I'm likely going to fairly soon just so I can enable wifi hotspot functionality for some of my other devices.
